Archive for Celebrity Status
It looks like stepping away from The Hills
is really doing some good to Lauren Conrad’s career. Not that she wasn’t a celebrity in her own right back then; it’s just more fulfilling for her to be an author. With two of her tomes already on the New York Times Bestseller list, she’s probably getting richer for that too.
Talking to People, the 24-year-old star expressed how great it felt to have two novels out in the market. They’ve been welcomed warmly by the fans, and her celebrity status certainly adds to the value of the books. Her first novel, LA Candy, spent weeks in the bestseller spot and is being followed by its sequel, Sweet Little Lies, there.
But the ranking isn’t what concerns Lauren Conrad all that much. What she really cares about, she says, is just putting her thoughts to the page.
“It’s so gratifying for my second book to be so successful and it was so fun to write!” the former Hills star exclaimed to People. “The characters were already developed so I really enjoyed the process so much more this time around. All the characters have become like my friends now.”
It also sounds like she’s holding slumber parties for them with how she’s described her writing process. According to Lauren Conrad, she spends time churning out her words while in bed.
“I just sat in bed writing and it was the best process,” she announced. “Who gets to work from home in their PJ’s?”
These two novels following protagonist 19-year-old Jane Roberts, who moves to Hollywood to film her own reality TV show. Sweet Little Lies continues the story, a semi-autobiographical take on Lauren Conrad’s life.
It’s more like a less visually constricting version of The Hills
though. But the public’s eating it up. “I’m just so thankful to my fans. E veryone is coming out to see me in the snow,” Conrad said, currently on her book tour. “I just can’t believe it.”
Hearing about King Spencer buying his own music company was alarming enough, but seeing this Pratt on the jacket of a CD? Makes you feel like the apocalypse has come as a holiday surprise, doesn’t it? Reports say that the Hills star recently posted the design of his album cover on his Twitter account, where he’s been promoting his new single titled “I’m a Celebrity.”
As you can see from the photo of Spencer Pratt’s album cover, it delivers what one expects of it. It’s the guy’s face as he fans himself with several dollar bills and towers over a silhouetted Hollywood. The glaring beams of blue behind him are obviously spotlights, focusing on the self-proclaimed King.
What’s more, the bold and blocked font of Spencer’s name with blue-to-white gradients emphasizes his desire to make himself known. As if he wasn’t already. But it could definitely use a bit of contrast; blue letters against a blue background don’t really work that well. Unless, of course, he’s implying that he’s blue-blooded royalty, then he did a good job.
Spencer Pratt’s album cover simply highlights the fact that he thinks he’s reached absolute celebrity status and he’s proud of it. You may think the album cover’s not as artful or profound as those of veteran musicians, but it’s from the star of The Hills. We’re not really holding out for much.
But if you’re still interested in what Spencer Pratt has to offer in terms of music, you might want to know that his single, “I’m a Celebrity” (just like the album’s title, yes), will be out soon. It will be available online a few days before Christmas.
“My new single “I’m A Celebrity” is available on iTunes 12/22,” Spencer posted on his Twitter. We’re only hoping he could at least do better than his wife, who launched her music career last year. While she’s on her way to conquering the literary world – everyone shudder! – we wait as her husband does what he can with this musical effort.
